Re: Winterizing Cobalt 292 twin 5.0gi

Well, I ended up talking with the guy that would do it for me and he agreed to take me back on. This time I watched him do it, so that I have the knowledge.

Re: Where to set dual battery switch

Old thread, but I just saw it.

I run one engine on 1 and the other on 2 and i "randomly" assign which engine to which battery. When it was time to replace batteries I replaced them at the same time anyway.
